Let's Get Together

Happy Sunday My Blogger Friends
Today is Spotlight Sunday ....... And I have a card I created using product from the 2020-2021 Stampin' UP! Annual Catalog.  This card uses several products from that new catalog ........ And I'm thrilled with the way it turned out.  Let's jump right in with my card share for today..........
I must admit........The color combination of Mint Macaron and TerraCotta Tile are quickly growing on me.  Check out how beautiful these two colors look when teamed up with the 'Ornate Garden Designer Series Paper'.
I started this card off by running my TerraCotta Tile panel through my die-cutting machine using the new 'Ornate Floral Embossing Folder'.
I printed off my sentiment from the 'Share Sunshine' pdf download offered by Stampin' UP! for a Covid-19 Giveback campaign ....... And then adhered it to three Early Espresso circles that were die-cut from the 'Tasteful Labels Dies'. 
And that's all it took my friends to create this
BEAUTIFUL little card.

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share an upgraded version of this very card with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Hey Card

Happy Saturday My Blogger Friends!
My blog post for today is Paper Pumpkin Saturday ........... And I would like to share with you the alternate project I created using the April 'A Kit In-Color' Paper Pumpkin kit.   Here's that project.......
This card just makes me SUPER HAPPY!!!
My base card is from the April Paper Pumpkin kit.  I used the envelope liners included in this kit to create my two DSP panels for the front of my card.
Before adhering the pink DSP panel down ...... I wrapped some of the Baker's Twine (included in this kit) around the top of that panel and tied it up into a pretty bow.
My sentiment is stamped onto a 'Layering Circles' die and matted with a Misty Moonlight scallop circle piece.
So there you have it my friends.......
Doesn't this card just make you SMILE!!!!

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share a Spot Light Sunday card with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

You Are The Best

Happy Thursday My Blogger Friends!
My blog post for today is Tag Thursday.  Today, I will feature a tag I created and show you how easy it is to use minimal supplies to create a SUPER PRETTY TAG.  Now that you have the details for my Tag Thursday creation for this week ........ Let's jump right in with my tag share for today........
Check out this pretty little tag I made using the new 2020-2022 In-Color Bubble Bee.  I must admit.....This is quickly becoming a GO TO Yellow color for me.
I layered two pieces of Bumble Bee card stock on top of each other and then grabbed the 'Ornate Style' stamp set and stamped my flowers all over these two layered pieces of card stock.  After I had the pieces stamped......I used Stampin' Dimensionals to layer those pieces and this created a pretty layered look for my tag.
My sentiment is from the 'Tasteful Touches' set.  All I did was stamp my sentiment onto some Whisper White card stock ....... And then cropped out the four words to create a fun sentiment message.
My tag was topped off with some of the new OH SO YUMMY 'Bubble Bee Gingham Ribbon.'......
And I added a few '2020-2022 In-Color Enamel Dots' around the front of my tag for some added FUN.
So there you have it friends......
Just couldn't be any easier?????

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share some Friends Friday creations with you ........ Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

You Are My Sunshine

Happy Wednesday My Blogger Friends!
My blog post for today is Wine-Down Wednesday.  My middle of the week card feature for today will hopefully offer you some inspiration and provide you with some motivation to keep you moving through your busy week.  Let's jump right in with my card share for today........

How FUN and HAPPY is this card!
It uses the new 'Flowers For Every Season Memories and More Cards and Envelopes'.  This pack comes with all the new 2020-2022 In-Colors ....... And I used the Magenta Madness color (my favorite).
I added one of the pretty cards from the 'Flowers For Every Season Memories & More' card pack and just mounted that to the center of my Magenta Madness base card.
The flower is from that same Memories & More Card Pack.....
And I just added that pretty flower to the top right corner.
The finishing touch was adding three little 2020-2022 In Color Enamel Dots to the bottom left hand corner of my card.......
And this card was done in a JIFFY!!!

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow with a Tag Thursday creation to share with you ........ Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Thinking of You Notebook Box

Happy Tuesday My Blogger Friends!
My blog post for today is 'CASE IT TUESDAY'.  That means today I have a fun little 3-D project that I found on the internet ....... And I created a CASE of that project to share with you today.  This project was SUPER FUN to create and I want to jump right in and share that project with you now.
I spotted this CASE from The Crafty Oink Pen blog and knew I would be creating it for someone very special.  I changed up the holder on the inside of the box and came up with this SUPER AWESOME creation.
The box is created with  a 7-1/2" x 8-1/4" piece of new Bumble Bee card stock.  It is scored on the long side at 3-7/8" and 4-3/8".  On the short side it's scored at 5-1/4' and 5-1/2". 

The change I made was on the side pieces.  I created mine with a 2-1/8" x 1-1/4" piece of Bumble Bee card stock.  And I scored those pieces on the long side at 1/4" and the short side at 1/2" and 3/4".
The front is decorated with the 'Ornate Garden Designer Series Paper'........
And I used the 'Many Mates' set for my sentiment label.
My pretty note card also use the 'Ornate Garden Designer Series Paper ..... And I used the new 'Tasteful Labels' and 'Layering Circles' dies to create my sentiment labels.
And I used the Early Espresso Faux Suede Trim' for the ribbon closure for my box.
This little project makes the perfect little gift to wrap up and give to someone and hopefully make them smile big.

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share a Wine Down Wednesday card with you ........ Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Things I Miss Upgrade

Happy Monday My Blogger Friends!
Today is Mix It UP! Monday and I have an upgraded version of the card I shared with you yesterday.  I used the exact same product that was used to create yesterday's card ....... but added a couple additional products found in the 2020-2021 Stampin' UP! Annual Catalog to bring this card up to the next stamping level.
 
Here's my Spot Light Sunday card from yesterday on the LEFT.....
And my Mix-It-UP! Monday upgraded card for today on the RIGHT.....
 
The first two changes I made to my upgraded card was to change the orientation of my card from a  landscape card to a portrait style card.  Next ...... I changed the base card from a Bumble Bee base to a Whisper White base.  To me ...... Changing up the base card to Whisper White really FRESHENED this card up to the next stamping level.
 
I added a small panel of the 'Ornate Garden DSP' to the front of my card.....
 
And then I got busy to create my sentiment panel.  I used the Share Sunshine PDF Download for my sentiment panel and matted that to an Early Espresso 'Tasteful Labels' die cut piece.
 
My finishing touch for this card was adding a Bumble Bee Daisy ...... And I used the new 'Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder' to create LOTS of TEXTURE on that punched Daisy.
 
So what do you think my friends......
Do you have a favorite???? 

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share a 3-D Tuesday creation with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!
